Is it possible to upgrade the stock HID headlights???
A while back, I upgraded/converted my stock halogen fog lights to the 4300K HID lights from StangMod.com. I was very satisfied with them and thought it was time to upgrade my main headlights, as well. Well, my stock headlights already have HID lights, but I was hoping to make them 'brighter', so I decided to purchase the "Dual Beam HID Headlight Conversion Kit for the 05-09 Mustangs". I am aware that this is a conversion kit and that my headlights are already HID, but I was hoping that it would work. It didn't, so I was wondering if anyone knew of a different way and/or product that might be useful. Any assistance and/or comments will be highly helpful. Thanks everyone.

I had the stangmods headlights for a while but I did not like kit: the light pattern was rather unfocused and the high beams were not really different than the low beam. When one of the ballast gave up nearly 3 months after install, i gave them up and switched to the FORD HID. They are rather pricey since you are actually buying the whole headlight assembly, but they are real HID, giving you clear low/high beams. Here is the link:

I have the ford factory HIDs in mine. i have to say i'm a bit disappointed in the low beams they have, as the pattern seems a bit blotchy, especially in the middle of the car. I find myself using the fogs too all the time, just to even out the light. Overall, i was much more impressed with the lights on my friend's 02ish focus mach edition. that said, the high beams are freaking awesome.
